Main characteristics

  • The Belgian exporter wants to grant extended payment terms to its foreign buyer
  • This credit is usually materialised by bills of exchange drawn by the exporter and accepted by the buyer
  • The bank can potentially discount those bills, which allows the exporter to receive its cash earlier
  • Credendo – Export Credit Agency insures the Belgian exporter against the termination and non-payment of the commercial contract during the whole period, as well as the discounting bank if needed

The Belgian exporter willing to offer extended payment terms to its foreign buyer, can ask Credendo – Export Credit Agency to cover the risks of termination and non-payment of the contract during this extended period, complying with OECD rules.

Eligible transactions are export contracts of capital goods or services with a min. 15% cash advance payment, and consequently a credit for max. 85% of the contract value.

This credit is usually materialised by bills of exchange (or promissory notes) drawn by the exporter and accepted by the buyer.

Repayment will happen in half-yearly or quarterly repayments (equal in principal but increased by a decreasing interest amount).

The exporter will be indemnified in case of termination or non-payment of the contract due to a buyer’s default, but also as a consequence of political risks.

The bills of exchange can also be discounted (refinanced) by the bank, with or without recourse against the exporter. In this case, the exporter will receive its cash payment after executing its part of the contract.

The bank will also be indemnified in case of non-payment due to a buyer’s default, but also as a consequence of political and similar risks.
